The Glasgow Indie Games Fest 2025 takes place on August 9 at the Barras Art & Design venue. Developers are now invited to submit their games – and tickets for the event are going quickly.
The festival prides itself on featuring: “the most interesting, the most moving and the most unconventional games from Scotland and around the world.”
You can choose between a Day, Evening, Full Day or VIP Ticket! With prices starting at £5, it promises to be an event to remember.
The organisers told Scottish Games Network:
You all loved our first GIGF in 2024, well now we’re back with a bigger and better event for 2025.
The Glasgow Independent Games Festival is an all-day event. We’ll have a bumper set of indie games for you to play, from some of the most talented developers around.
During the day we have a series of developer talks, workshops and discussions, allowing you to peek inside the sausage machine and even argue with the gristle. In the evening there will be live entertainment, music, poetry and an award ceremony for our audience-voted Best in Show.
